Blackboard

Blackboard is a web-based learning management system that allows instructors to put their syllabi, lecture notes, and assignments online for students to access at any time. It also includes interactive features, such as web conferencing tools, discussion boards, blogs, wikis and journals, which enhance communication between students and faculty. Instructors can use Blackboard as the sole means of delivering their course or as a way to augment a traditional face-to-face class. Blackboard is the primary vehicle that OIT supports for online classes.
